TAFKAG 70 Posted March 18, 2008 Movie director Anthony Minghella has died at the age of 54 Edited to say: I just noticed that there's a seperate thread for him It just shows how popular he was I excually didn't think a best director winner would die this year. (I.m not following the Pollack Hype) He was a journeyman, unworthy of an Oscar. I can't believe The English Patient won 9 of the things (scuppering Fargo along the way), while Truly, Madly, Deeply was just irritating twaddle in middlebrow clothing.

The For Whores Man 4 Posted March 19, 2008 I hear ago 2 minutes that this f*****g guy is half-responsible for The Talented Mr Ripley. This is the worst film I ever saw and it is the reason I decided not to like my girlfriend who made me watch it. It was an insult to every good film what was ever made. I'm glad he died, now nobody can be making such terrible film again, I hope. I think Matt Damon is also half-repsonsible; maybe he could comitt suicide now his friend is dead? Hurray for no more such sh*t films. I never saw the English Patient, maybe that was shitty too? Like Titanic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,646 Posted March 19, 2008 Speaking of The English Patient would a fitting funeral for Minghella involve Ralph Fiennes weeping loudly whilst carrying Minghella's body wrapped in a sheet out of the hospital and down to the crem? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would be even more fitting if he came back as a ghost and try and get someone to sleep with Michael Maloney... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's especially confusing when there are mentions of other family members. So much clearer to use forenames, and it seems more respectful. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
